Overview

We ought to investigate if hip fracture patients suffering from frailty have higher inflammatory burden according to simple inflammatory biomarkers.

Description

Frailty (F) is a prevalent syndrome among elderly patient with hip fractures (HF) and has been linked to poor prognosis. Inflammatory biomarkers have been used as prognostic indexes in patients with HF. We ought to investigate if hip fracture patients suffering from frailty have higher inflammatory burden according to simple inflammatory biomarkers.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • age >65 years, ASA PS I-III, non- institutionalized, able to communicate patients

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with severe cognitive dysfunction, those treated conservatively, those with pathological fractures and patients who refused to participate
